Is -1 a valid parameter for hung_task_warnings in RHEL 6

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • On 3.16.12 the sysctl is described in /usr/share/doc/kernel-doc*/Documentation/sysctl/kernel.txt and I am told there that -1 is also a valid setting
  • Is -1 a valid setting in RHEL 6.5 kernel 2.6.32-431.23.3.el6.x86_64 and later?
